In this issue, we are what we pretend to be: Ginger Strand reads Kurt Vonnegut's diary; Gordon Grice searches for a mummy who (perhaps) assassinated a president in a past life; and Jimmy Maxwell says good-bye to his pals in the United Aryan Brotherhood on his way out of prison.

Here's what you'll find in this 128-page quarterly:

Kurt Vonnegut's Oklahoma Eden: Ginger Strand finds out what the hell Kurt Vonnegut was doing in the Osage hills of Northeastern Oklahoma in 1939.

At Risk: Chris Murphy offers a composite of rural poverty in Oklahoma.

Safe: A poem dedicated to paranoia by Landry Harlan.

Down Through There: Jimmy Maxwell reflects on his time in prison and as a member of the United Aryan Brotherhood.

Rhyme and Punishment: Beth Niestemski explains how a weekly poetry workshop at Tulsa County Jail gives incarcerated women the tools they need to navigate through regret and shame.

How to Arrest the Increase of Homicides in America: An 1895 letter from Judge Isaac Parker, infamously known as the “Hanging Judge,” in which he considers the greatest threat to American society.
